First Class in CTE at William Carey University Graduates

Last week, on May 11 and May 12, 2012, the first undergraduate and graduate class in Career and Technical Education at William Carey University received their degrees.  This was a great achievement for these individuals and for our program.  For every graduate, it takes a lot of effort and work to earn a college degree and every member of this group achieved that goal while working full time.  It also takes a lot of perseverance to be the first group in a new degree program.  

I promise to build on what we began together so that your program will continue to improve for every future student. Congratulations to each of you on your hard work. 

The members of the May 2012 graduating class in CTE were:

Undergraduate Class

• James David Collum
• Louis DeVon Bridges
• Robin Jowan House Gates

Graduate Class

• J.D. Carr, Jr.
• Wakeshia Nicloe Cole
• Dion Allasondri Michelle Dotson
• Angela Benigno Nelson

When I was driving back after the final commencement ceremony at sunset, there was an unusual double rainbow arched across the highway.  I like to think that this was in honor of all of our graduates.  It was very beautiful. I stopped and took a photograph on my phone that does not really do it justice.  I hope you all find what you looking for at end of the rainbow and that blessings follow you all the days of your lives.
